Answer:

Power, P =9800 W

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the elevator, m = 500kg

It is raised to a height of 20 m in 10 seconds

Power is defined as the work done per unit time.

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

Work done is given by :

W=mgh

h is the height

So, P=\dfrac{mgh}{t}

P=\dfrac{500\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 20\ m}{10\ s}

P = 9800 Watts

Hence, the power of the motor is 9800 W. The correct option is (b).

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

 μ = 0.18

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second Law, the coordinate system is horizontal and vertical

Before starting to move the box

Y axis

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

X axis

     F -fr = 0

     F = fr

The friction force has the formula

     fr = μ N

     fr =  μ m g

At the limit point just before starting the movement

     F = μ m g

     μ = F / m g

calculate

      μ = 34.8 / (19.8 9.8)

    μ = 0.18

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force, F = - mg j

r = - 7x i + y j

Torque is defined as the product f force and the perpendicular distance.

It is also defined as the cross product of force vector and the displacement vector.

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\overrightarrow{r}\times \overrightarrow{F}

\overrightarrow{\tau }=(- 7 x i + yj)\times (-mgj)

[tex]\overrightarrow{\tau  }= 7 m g x k

Here, we observe that the torque is independent of y coordinate.
